WHAT WOMEN WANT...

Happy belated Mothers' day to all the mothers in the world (the ones that can actually be called 'Mothers', that is)...

So yesterday was fun in church, a lotta singing and dancing by the mothers. I sighed a coupla times - no need to ask why, right?!

Anyways, straight to the point (I have other things to attend to this morning... like NOTHING!).

WHAT WOMEN WANT - No, this is not Part 2 of that flick where Mel Gibson possessed that thought-hearing ability, that i totally envy by the way! This is a very short sermon from yesterday; aside from the Pastor encouraging all the married men to take their wives somewhere nice and spoil them, he also gave them an insight of the things/qualities women want in their men. I thought this might be useful to the dudes, married, unmarried or about to be married (whichever category you fall into):

1. A PLANNER

Most women do not appreciate a sloppy man (at least I don't). My man has to be neat and have things in order from his clothes to his schedule, his work things to home things. I'm sure you know what I mean. So, while some women might overlook the disorderliness of their men and think it's their God-given duty to pick up after him (which is not entirely true), most women will not appreciate a Sloppy Joe (not the food)

2. A PROACTIVE MAN

If you're passive and your woman is not showing any sign of boredom or concern, then she's getting all the action elsewhere. Women love men who can control a situation whatever it is, not a man who is lacking in energy or will.

3. A RESPONSIBLE MAN

I know a couple of girls who when they're men are acting immature and stuff, they withdraw. Like totally be unresponsive. A responsible man gets a responsive woman. Simple

4. A COMPANION

Have you ever heard where girls say 'I wanna get married to someone who's my friend'? Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be. You don't just marry cos you saw him/her and fell head over heels, and shakalakaboom-boom straight to the altar! NO! Women (and I'm sure men too) want their husband to not just be the father of their kids, but also a companion, a friend, helpmate, playmate... someone they can share their joys and fears with.


5. A PRESENT HUSBAND

I don't know which one is more annoying (and I hope not to find out) - the absent husband, or the absent-minded husband?! Whichever one you've been, you should look to change now from this minute! Your woman says she wants to tell you something, you tell her to go ahead... she goes on and tells you stuff, maybe about her work or something that's bothering her, and when she's done you go like 'ehn, what did you say... sorry I was trying to sort this thing'! She goes like 'Never mind'.... OR the more active woman gets really mad and starts to remind you of how absent-minded and uncaring you've been for a long while now. Be present, not just for her, but for the sake of your marriage. Mark attendance everytime your name is called by your partner. You'll be surprised how some things will be sorted out without the usual argument.


So now, my work here is done... see you on the next blog.
